Rating Ascension & Playstyle
Starting with a bullet rating shy of 2000 in 2019, Валерий rocketed upwards to an awe-inspiring peak of over 3000 in both Blitz and Bullet formats by 2021-2022. His rapid games also deserve applause with a solid 2733 rated run, proving that patience and speed can happily coexist on the 64 squares.

Record-Breaking Performance
Whether playing in the wee hours (2 AM and 3 AM win rates soar above 66%) or during prime afternoon battles, Валерий knows how to seize victory. His playing style combines deep endgame knowledge with precise opening strategies he keeps top secret—perhaps a modern-day Kasparov conspiracy?
Dominating thousands of bullet games with nearly 14,000 wins and a fierce blitz record, Валерий loves to stay in the fight.
The Opponents’ Nemesis
From sl4werthanyou (83% defeat rate) to zigzag2002 (100% loss rate), many challengers have tasted the bitter side of Валерий’s tactical prowess.
